As Liberal leader Mike Ignatieff boards the bus to depart on his summer BBQ circuit in a vain attempt to convince the Liberal rank and file that he's worthy of their confidence; one has to wonder whether he will be riding inside the bus or underneath it. Ever since those approval numbers came out, where half the people who liked him a year ago no longer have a favourable opinion, the blood is in the water and the sharks are circling. I'm sure that everywhere he goes the people will be talking about coalitions, mergers, and beyond; awkward for the leader with the coalition messiah looking over his shoulder.
Speaking of which, will Bob Rae also be hitting the BBQ circuit? Will he and the man he seeks to replace attend events together? What are Reid and Kinsella's summer schedules looking like? There has to be a limited number of Liberal events, so those seeking to rally support should theoretically have limited options for possible event attendance.
This gets me to a poll question I would like to launch on Saturday. What would you call Iggy's summer tour? I have some preliminary nominations. As always your feedback is encouraged.
